Many have picked up on The Bulldog’s red flag warning about the closure of the Esso (On-the-Run) gas bar at Mt. Pleasant Rd. and Merton Street. Sadly, the steel fences and serious construction equipment at that corner this morning came as a shock to others. It looks like they’re replacing the pumps. It will be that way until 6 p.m. Saturday, May 24, 2014.
